  • Award-winning family-friendly park 10 minutes' drive from Newquay
  • Covering 56 acres including a dedicated dog area
  • Pool, play zones, clubhouse and fish and chip takeaway
There’ll be plenty of time for monkey business in this family-friendly site… Surrounded by a whopping 56 acres of countryside and a fab place for taking tiddlers, the award-winning Monkey Tree Holiday Park is 10 minutes from Perranporth and its huge open beach, as well as the lively surf centre of Newquay. As you might already (luckily) know, the north coast of Cornwall is tiptop for beaches – Newquay's famed for its world-class waves and heady nightlife, while Perranporth has kayaking and hovercrafting to get adventurously stuck into, and top-notch coastal walks on either side of the beach. Back at base, catch a few pages of your book while the kids splash about in the outdoor heated pool complex… or while they join in with the packed entertainment schedule for juniors (there's a talented in-house entertainment team on hand with a daily kids' club and Funky Monkey putting in a regular appearance). On top of that, a maze of net walkways, slides and ball pools means that younger guests will have plenty to keep them entertained, whatever the weather. Food's sorted with the on-site clubhouse and restaurant and a fish and chip takeaway (fish and chips + seaside = essential). Or fire up the barbecue instead: hit up the camp store for the essentials, or head to the grocery store 10 minutes away.

Liked: Nice clean site, good launderette. Bingo. Liam James good singer/entertainer.

Disliked: Lot of things closed, it's still not even middle of September so expected more to be opened. TV and WiFi very very poor.

From the manager: Thank you for leaving us a review. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our entertainment and activities, and we pride ourselves on having a clean, well maintained site. All our facilities remain open in September, however the opening hours for some of our facilities may be decreased due to it being the end of our peak season, meaning we're less busy and are operating with a reduced staff. We're sorry to hear you weren't happy with the provided TV. We encourage guests to report any issues to reception during your stay and we will try our best to resolve them for you. Due to our large site, the Wi-Fi connection may be weaker in some areas of the park. This feedback has been passed along to our IT team, who are looking at solutions for providing more reliable internet connectivity throughout the site. Thanks again for your feedback! We hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Second visit for us with a 9 year old, 6 year old, 4 year old and 1 year old. Entertainment is the main reason for return, along with the beautiful facilities. Showers/toilets are always well kept across the site. The pool is gorgeous, clean and heated! So much to do in the arcades, the park is huge and caters to all ages, huge sand pit next to the summer nights bar as well as a soft play. Kids can run off and play and will always be in site. We have camped all over since I was a little girl with my parents, to now with my children. This is the best family friendly campsite we have found.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: This is a fab park with absolutely loads to do and in a great location for Newquay attractions- only a few minutes from Healeys cider farm and a few more minutes for Newquay beaches. The site was clean and tidy and the staff very helpful and friendly. The entertainment at the park was great and varied, there was loads to keep the kids entertained. The shop was well stocked and reasonably priced, and the food there was good

Disliked: The only thing that let our trip down was a pair of idiots camping near us who didn’t seem to understand that tents are a membrane thick and insisted on arguing and shouting at one another all night- then another idiot revving his engine at 4am the following night, you get them everywhere but it made it not as relaxing as we wanted!

Local attractions

Cornwall’s coastline and beaches are pretty much legendary, but Newquay (10 minutes) is world-famed for its surf and nightlife too. It’s a party town from daybreak until well after dark and the surf's so good they hold international competitions here – check out Fistral Beach and Watergate Bay. Perranporth (10 minutes) is the place to head for a more relaxed beach day, though it’s very popular so best to get your towel down early. The beach here is a fab spot for dog walking, rolling up the trousers for a paddle or lazing around and copping a look at the views. The Eden Project (35 minutes) has the UK’s most realistic rainforest, full of rare plant species and exotic butterflies, as well as a pretty nifty Mediterranean biome. Daredevils can also have a go on England’s longest zipwires – or head over to Flambards in Helston (45 minutes) for flumes, rollercoasters and go karting.
